== Biografia ==
Toomey was a member of the bands Geek, [[Tsunami (band)|Tsunami]], Liquorice, [[Grenadine (band)|Grenadine]], So Low and Choke, among others, and has also recorded under her own name.<ref name=PhilaCityPaper-Tsunami-Ladyfest-2003>{{cite news|last1=Rapa|first1=Patrick|title=The Match: Indie rock mothers of invention Tsunami are still fighting the good fight and reuniting for Ladyfest|url=http://citypaper.net:80/articles/2003-03-20/cover9.shtml|work=[[Philadelphia City Paper]]|date=20 March 2003|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20030426001930/http://citypaper.net/articles/2003-03-20/cover9.shtml|archive-date=26 April 2003|url-status=dead}}</ref>
In 1990, Toomey co-founded the [[Simple Machines]] record label with a housemate who left the project soon after. Toomey ran the label with [[Kristin Thomson]] from 1990 to 1998 out of their house in [[Arlington, Virginia]]. Along with [[TeenBeat Records]] and [[Dischord Records]], Simple Machines helped document the D.C. [[punk rock|punk]] and [[indie rock]] scenes. Tsunami was also greatly influential in the [[do it yourself|do it yourself (D.I.Y.)]] movement among the punk, grunge and indie communities. Among the artists released on Simple Machines are Tsunami, Grenadine, [[Franklin Bruno]], [[Ida (band)|Ida]], [[Scrawl]], [[Dave Grohl]] (recording under the name Late!) and [[Retsin]], among others.<ref name=SimpleMachines-Story>{{cite web|title=Simple Machines Records: Story|url=http://www.simplemachines.net/story.html|website=[[Simple Machines]]}}</ref> Through Simple Machines, Toomey and Thomson released The Mechanic's Guide, a DIY music guidebook which was influential in the independent music scene of the 1990s.
In 2000, Toomey founded the [[Future of Music Coalition]], a Washington, D.C. [[think tank]] that translates the complex issues at the intersection of music, policy and law, aiming to help (primarily independent) musicians, including [[Intellectual property|intellectual property rights]], health insurance, and the effects of corporate consolidation of radio and the music industry. She was the founding executive director.<ref name=NPR-MorningEdition-FCCTestimony-2004>{{cite news|last1=Ulaby|first1=Neda|title=Jenny Toomey, Rocking the FCC|url=https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=1644659|work=[[Morning Edition]]|publisher=[[NPR]]|date=11 February 2004|language=en|format=Includes audio}}</ref>
As part of her advocacy work, Toomey participated in many conferences, including the Future of the Music Industry forum held at Georgetown University in January 2003, among others.<ref name=CSPAN-MusicIndustryDigitalTech-2003>{{cite news|last1=Adelstein|first1=Jonathan S.|last2=Lightfoot|first2=David|last3=Toomey|first3=Jenny|title=Music Industry Digital Technology|url=https://www.c-span.org/video/?174441-1/music-industry-digital-technology|work=[[Georgetown University]], [[Future of Music Coalition]]|publisher=[[C-SPAN]]|date=6 January 2003|format=Video}}</ref>
In November 2007, she was appointed Program Officer for Media and Cultural Policy in the Media, Arts and Culture Unit at the [[Ford Foundation]], where she would later serve as Director, Internet Freedom, and where she is currently the International Program Director, Technology and Society.
